Lyrics
Miriam?s Song
Katie Daggett Webber 1994
Verse 1
I lay my baby down to sleep
and I wish her the sweetest of dreams
On her face there?s such peace
she?s in a place where life?s troubles cease
Chorus
I give her love love love
All the love she?ll ever need
love love love
And with this love we?ll sow the seed
So that love will always grow
Inside her life
Verse 2
As my baby grows away from me
It?s hard to watch her fall and make her mistakes
I know she?ll be ok I know she?ll find her way
?cause she?s got so much love in her world
Chorus
Bridge
If I could make time stand still
I would pause at the time
When I could kiss all hurts away
If I could wish her anything
I would wish her the joy
that knowing true love can bring
Verse 3
Now my baby she?s all grown
She?s got a husband now and a baby of her own
I know they?ll be ok I know they?ll find their way
?Cause she brings so much love to their worlds
Chorus2
She gives them love love love
all the love they?ll ever need
love love love
and with this love she?ll sew the seed
so that love will always grow
Inside their lives
so that love will always grow inside their lives.
